      meade916 i recently found out that the amps in my truck are not even secured they’re just wired in are you open to the public? I do understand you are doing this system for someone you know.
      Also i seen stan around for a few years now
      What u did was straight up knocking it out the park man.

      meade916 bro looks good although I had a bad experience in not running it through the stock boot . Ended up getting water in the cab ...

    • @meade916
      @meade916  7 років тому +1

      sounds like you or your installer didn't know what they were doing. Next time take it to someone more qualified.

    So used to seeing the new Escalade, ISF, and systems over 10k watts. It’s crazy to see you work on something like an old Accord and a “standard” sized system at that. It’s nice to see that you’re not above it, and hooking up the homie too. Staying humble and never losing sight of your roots.

    Sorry about having to stretch it into another video but...like i said, the files on 4k video's take forever to deal with and if i don't show you every detail of what i am doing, you might think they just put themselves in there. Hug your local audio guy next time you see him because this shit is time consuming. Even the easy stuff takes time to do right. Respect to those who do it for a living daily!

  • @wal
    @wal 7 років тому +2

    There will be some that complain about anything. I prefer the separate vids as it makes the entire install feel like a “season” of shows. Brother Psyph is gonna be psyched 😎

  • @MicraHakkinen
    @MicraHakkinen 7 років тому +1

    Call me a noob but that's the first time I've even considered mounting the crossover inside the door. Top notch job too with the custom bracket and everything. And to think I thought I was so smart for mounting the crossovers behind the a-pillar kick panels in my first install in my cousin's Ford Sierra over 15 years ago, haha. Though to be fair in that setup I mounted the tweeters about 1/3 the way up his A-pillar next to the front window, so I suppose in that case the crossover location did make sense. Still it's nice to learn new stuff especially since it's done with so much attention to detail. I love stuff done properly and Steve you always deliver, thanks!

  • @MrSpanky473

    As someone who has installed car audio equipment for many close friends and family, your work is very admirable. I never really got into aftermarket speakers too much and am thinking about doing a sound system overhaul on my 2015 Forester. While I'm looking to maintain factory appearance as much as possible, and to maintain as much cargo room as possible, I took away some hints from this video as well. Great work!

    I actually engineer, design, install and program whole house automation, and theaters, which is all 12 volt anyway, but what I enjoy is that he makes his nstalls as idiot proof as possible, just like I use to do when I installed car audio. I carried that level of detail into home audio, and started my own business doing to homes, what he does to cars. #TRUESTORYBRO

      If you ever need a sound barrier for a sound studio, hit us up Our Luxury Liner rolls make an awesome barrier layer and are used in Dr Offices, Elevator Shafts, and even in Recording Studios like the new one being built in Burbank, CA using Second Skin Luxury Liner (Can't reveal the name yet).

    • @D0N0TSUBMEASSHOLE
      @D0N0TSUBMEASSHOLE 7 років тому +1

      Second Skin Insulation I'll keep that in mind, I usually use quiet rock, and various industry standard acoustic panels to remove reflection, and so forth. There isn't a whole lot of call for sound deadening, as we aren't talking about incredible decibel levels, but rather HIGHLY calibrated set ups for 7.1+...
      I will keep that in mind though, if the situation ever turns up, or I build another car audio system.

    Hey Meade916 Nice Work!
    Thanks for Sharing. That was a neat idea for the Crossover & Tweeter install.
    I am installing these R.F. T3652-S with a R.F. T1D2-10 Sub in a custom High-Output, Ported enclosure Box & a T1500 & a T1500-1BDCP 1500 Watt Class BD Power Amplifier in a GMC Savana Cargo Van.
    Of course I Sound Deadened all the walls, floors & overhead Cab area.
    I'm thinking of building a upright Shelf 2010 Aluminum extrusion to house the Units the Sub, Amp & axillary Stereo.
    Any suggestions?
